Aviation safety reports, made easier to study
NTSB Reports is an independent research and search tool for public aviation accident and incident records. It brings NTSB aviation reports, structured fields, docket files, extracted figures, photos, videos, and update history into one searchable interface.
The goal is practical safety education: make it faster to find relevant investigations, compare similar events, review factual records, and understand the evidence behind probable-cause and preliminary reports.
The investigative work and source records belong to the National Transportation Safety Board and the published investigation record. This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NTSB.

The pilot reported that while landing the light-sport airplane on his private airstrip the airplane bounced hard. The pilot reported that he executed a go-around, and the airplane entered a steep climb, and experienced an aerodynamic stall. After the stall, the left wing struck a powerline, and the airplane impacted a soybean field. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the forward fuselage and both wings. The pilot reported no mechanical issues with the airplane prior to the accident. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and both wings.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot exceeding the airplane’s critical angle of attack, resulting in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent loss of control during go-around after a bounced landing.
